RS232 Scales to Excel on Mac – Keyboard wedge

I have some shipping scales that are connected to my Mac by RS232. I can see the data in terminal using Screen /dev/xxx however I can’t seem to find a way to set this device as a HID/Keyboard.

It works in the same way a barcode scanner does, in that when a “print” button is pressed, the weight is sent over RS232, however, when a barcode scanner is connected via bluetooth to the Mac, it recognises it as a keyboard.

How do I get macOS to recognise this device as a keyboard over a wired connection?!

I have seen 232wedge but this is for windows only, it seems to be what I need if it worked on Mac!

Can someone give me any pointers please?!

TIA
